Hello KGI students and alumni!

We are pleased to announce that the 2026 Career Fair is set to take place on February 27th, 2026 in person! Whether you are looking for an internship, co-op, or full-time job, please stop by and take the time to meet with various biotech companies. All KGI students are welcome to attend and we hope that students from all programs are able to learn more (and potentially fill) the various job postings offered through each company. We also strongly encourage students to network with employers, even if there are not any job postings available. Thank you and we look forward to seeing you all!
